  • You should assume that whatever you upload to the internet without encryption is public. Bereal was always advertised as a tool for sharing your life with others, so this isn't unexpected for me. The only misleading part is that if you share with friends only, it's not just your friends, but also the service provider, so you should assume that it may leak. I never used bereal so I'm not familiar with its features, some of my friends use it and I just heard about it from them. From their description it didn't sound as an app where you should expect privacy.

    Is Lemmy a privacy nightmare? No, because you know that everything is public here, admins can even see your DMs.

    Do not share private data on the public internet

  • There are different communities for answers like that, for general techsupport. Maybe OP asked it in a wrong place, but if it's already here, and does not sound blatantly oftopic it should be answered in the spirit of the community.

    And the answer was also wrong, OP asked how to save as inverted, not how to open inverted.

  • As we are in !opensource@lemmy.ml maybe OP would like to use a foss tool? You can't be further from foss with aDoBe AcRoBaT rEaDeR

  • People are different, different people like different things, and they care about different features of a device.

    I never had any apple device, but I help a lot other people with iphones and macs, and I have to tell you they are just devices. I'm familiar with their features, but I don't care, this whole thing is only about you. If you want an iphone buy one. If you don't want one, just move on, life is too short for getting mad about unnecessary thing like this.

  • Wouldn't it be better to replace the full rom at this point? You trust other parts but not the dialer?

    What I'm trying to say, if you think your built in dialer is a spyware, it's very likely other components of the rom could be spyware as well, and you don't gain too much by replacing only this component.

  • Wdym spyware? Isn't the stock dialer comes from aosp and it's open source? Or your rom doesn't use that one?

  • How can you be sure someone is not storing CSAM on your server, if it's encrypted?

    It sounds like storj from a decade ago, but you got at least some monopoly money for your storage there. I don't follow what they are doing nowadays but it started similarly

  • If you can get a factory rom, usually you can root it with magisk if you can unlock the bootloader, you don't necessarily need a custom rom, magisk can patch stock roms.

    With rooted location mocking, apps can't see you mock it, maybe pokemon go can, but I tested routing and navigation in organic maps this way.

    Nanolx has a very detailed install instructions for microg with edge cases: https://gitlab.com/Nanolx/NanoDroid

  • If you can root your phone you can install whatever location mocking app from fdroid, they should work in all apps, and some may even work on ancient android versions.

    Network based location is available via other ways, not just by the goog, if you install microg or only its location part unifiednlp, you can get quick rough location from celltowers and even crowd sourced wifi based location, formerly collected by mozilla, nowadays by poziton.

    Some links for further reading, if you are not familiar with android rooting scene,you will have to read a lot:

    Some location mocking apps, I used one some time ago, but I don't remember which one:

  • Have you checked nocode platforms/databases? It's basically a cross section of a super powerful excel and a database manager. You can set up the way you want, link records from different tables, add images, files to "rows", like excel on steroids. You don't have to understand SQL at all, that's why it's called "no code".

    I use nocodb. Tried baserow before, but I didn't like that a lot of basic features are not available in the foss version, in nocodb only some bells and whistles are behind a paywall and not available in the self hosted version

    They are also called airtable clones, as airtable was the first well known platform like these.

    Some other similars exist: https://alternativeto.net/software/airtable/?platform=self-hosted&feature=database-management

  • Those snakes seemed very sedated. A lot of animal abuse may be behind the scenes, they show the small room where the hyena lives, it doesn't look big enough for an animal of that size.

  • The pin runs some android based software as the website mentions adb. You can build your own interposer, and they are selling the current official one on Etsy, in a 3d printed case. It doesn't sound like something made in a factory. I guess it uses some off the shelf usb to jtag chip or similar.

    The interposer files are in this repo: https://github.com/MaxMaeder/OpenPin

    From the bom it seems it's just a micro usb to pogo pin converter, no chip mentioned, so the pin has an usb port, but pogo pin form...

  • Small and easy to wear form factor, monochrome laser projector are the two most interesting. Also a camera, microphone, a lot other sensors, packed in a tight case. If you build something DIY usually you can't make it this small.

  • This is not a well written arricle. They mixes up material design with corporate memphis, which is not necessarily related, they can exist independently.

    Their actual problem with google's ux appears only in this paragraph:

    The problem? Google’s actual UI & UX design is terrible. Whether mass-market or enterprise, web or mobile, its interfaces are chaotic and confusing. Every time I use Google Drive or the G Suite admin console, I feel lost. Neither experience nor intuition helps—I feel like an old man seeing a computer for the first time. I used Android for years (stock Android on a Nexus device), yet even after all that time, I struggled to distinguish buttons from plain text.

    No examples, no reasoning, no good counter examples how it should be done, nothing. I'm not super familiar with google's web ux as I only use search and youtube ocasionally. They write here about android, but no android screenshots in the article. So is this about web ux only? Or anything google? The author couldn't even figure out what is their problem, this article sounds like "old man yells at cloud"

    Thanks god it's not default.

  • They tried to place them as far from villages as possible for the first one. You can see in the video, the guy had to bike to the middle of nowhere to record it. The problem first appeared in countrywide news after the 3rd one, because that's much more closer to some residential buildings.

    Hungary is not a classic democracy, if you are not a friend of a local oligarch you can't really do anything about things like this. If they decided about it at the HQ it will happen whatever it takes.

    I think the original concept is not inherently bad, you just need careful planning and sound simulations. Current tech can simulate sound waves very precisely. Maybe such a small country doesnt need 3 of these, they should have stopped after the 1st or 2nd one
